Health workers lead cops to mother who killed her infant
Hindustan TimesNavi Mumbai: The body of a day-old baby boy was discovered from a public dustbin in Turbhe by police at 10 am on July 17. The cause of the infant’s death would have gone unreported, if not for the agility displayed by the staff of the urban health post of Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation. “In our search for the culprit, NMMC health workers and the medical officer from UHP – Dr Kailas Gaikwad -- played crucial roles,” said senior police inspector, Ravindra Daundkar. Gaikwad and his team of health workers first tried to draw up a list of all expecting mothers in the area and found no woman registered to deliver around that time. They landed up at her house, while the team of health workers remained outside to ensure she did not try to escape,” said a health worker.
